Cask handpull at Westgate JDW, Canterbury. Thanks to maeib for identifying this one. Cloudy russet colour with lasting thick beige head. Sweet raspberry aroma, like kids sweets, bit of sourness in mouth, bit medicinal. Served very cold. Really overly sweet. Like raspberry ripple ice cream on end. Not awful, but it is ovely sweet in mouth even though the aftertaste is pretty good.

Cask at JDW, Penny Black, Bicester 22-10-06. I read from the Thomas Hardy thread on the Forum that this is sold as Ecaussinnes Fruit Beer. Red slightly hazy beer, taste not too disimilar to vimto though only sweeter and far worse, It would be hard to say anything positive about this beer as it really wasn’t my thing it tasted far too artificial and sweet for me.

Pours a hazy gold into a tulip. Conglomerate head leaves splotchy lacing as it recedes. Bread, hay and soap aromas. Sweet honey from start to finish. Fizzy then flat. Cloying. I can feel a headache coming on...

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a clear, dark, reddish brown with a creamy, beige head. Very spicy aroma - almost like Undrrberg or Fernet Branca. Full-bodied with very sweet notes of brown sugar and roasted malt. Some licorice and then again these very spicy accents that I rather associate with a digestive alcohol. Dry, lightly bitter and rather alcoholic finish. 240906

Bottled at Delirium, Gothenburg. Clear, golden ale with a white head. The aroma has cellar, alcohol, candi-sugar, some fruityness and a hint of the inside of a balloon. Candi, spices, cellar and fruits in the flavor. Dusty, sweet and watery in the mouth. Drying finish. Somehow this beer reminded me of a tripel, and I was surprised to sense the alcohol that much, after all it is only 5% ABV. (060823)
